I’m using human serum samples for proteomic analysis. Can anyone suggest me if using Agilent Multiple affinity albumin removal columns are suitable enough in case I have to proceed with 2D gel electrophoresis ? Please help me out.
please keep in mind that you also may decrease de quantity of low abundent proteins by an albumin depletion which could confound your proteomic analysis. This is described in i.e.:
Granger et al. 2005 "Albumin depletion of human plasma also removes low abundance proteins including the cytokines."
